Mouse Wingless Type MMTV Integration Site Family, Member 4 (WNT4) ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay
The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to WNT4. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to WNT4. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After the TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain WNT4, biotin-conjugated antibody, and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution, and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of WNT4 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
For Use with serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Target Information
Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors (Probable). Plays an important role in the embryonic development of the urogenital tract and the lung (PubMed:7990960, PubMed:9989404, PubMed:16054034, PubMed:17537789, PubMed:19830824, PubMed:26321050). Required for normal mesenchyme to epithelium transition during embryonic kidney development (PubMed:7990960, PubMed:16054034, PubMed:17537789, PubMed:19830824). Required for the formation of early epithelial renal vesicles during kidney development (PubMed:16054034). Required for normal formation of the Mullerian duct in females, and normal levels of oocytes in the ovaries (PubMed:9989404, PubMed:19830824). Required for normal down-regulation of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in the ovary (PubMed:9989404). Required for normal lung development and for normal patterning of trachael cartilage rings (PubMed:26321050).

Performance Characteristics
REPEATABILITY |
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level WNT4 were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. |
SENSITIVITY | The minimum detectable dose was 0.052ng/mL. |
ASSAY RANGE | 0.156-10ng/mL |
SPECIFICITY | This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of WNT4. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between WNT4 and analogs was observed. Note: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between WNT4 and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist. |
